[Asterisk-Users] Editing Asterisk config files with WORD Pad

[Mojo with Horan & Company, LLC]

If you prefer the capabilities of the gui, I'd recommend against 
wordpad. You don't want (can't have?) the wrong line termination chars 
in there.

I have found crimson editor to be quick-loading and easy to use - 
www.crimsoneditor.com - small memory footprint.

Conversely, I often use nano for very minor .conf editing.  It's Ctrl-K 
and Ctrl-U functions are fairly easy ways to copy blocks of text around 
a file.  And if you open two terminals, with nano in each, you could of 
course copy-n-paste between windows with your mouse.
